Testimonials

Dr. Varella is wonderful. I was one of those patients with a particularly challenging tooth, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything was done correctly. He saw me on two separate occasions, taking the extra time and care needed to achieve the best possible outcome. His expertise, patience, and commitment is truly exceptional. Thank you, Dr. Varella, for all you did for me!

Dear Dr. Varella, I want to thank you and your staff for the referral to a trusted dental professional for additional work I need. As I have told you and your staff each time I have been with you, I truly wish you could take care of all of my medical concerns as it is so hard finding doctors with your commitment to your patients. I know the world of medicine is so difficult these days for physicians, I want to thank you for everything you have done over the years as your patient.

I highly recommend Varella Endodontics. Complicated dental issues are highly stressful. I felt taken care of from start to finish. Dr. Varella put me at ease and explained the root canal procedure in terms I could understand. He was professional, knowledgeable, efficient and attentive. Dr. Varella's assistant was also lovely. When Dr Varella was injecting me with numbing serum, she tapped my arm on the opposite side of my body and I didn't feel a thing! Little things go a long way in creating patient satisfaction. I am thankful that my dentist recommended Varella Endodontics.

"Outstanding" experience with Dr. Varella & entire staff. I had a molar with abscess after a previous root canal and was extremely nervous going in, expecting a painful procedure. Instead, the entire procedure was surprisingly smooth and completely pain-free. Dr Varella is clearly very skilled and was able to save my tooth. Thanks Dr. Varella! I highly recommend this office especially for complicated endodontic cases.

Outstanding is the first thing that comes to mind as it retains to my experience at this practice. From the folks at the front desk, to the care I received from the Doctor and his assistant everything was first-class and painless. I was dreading a root canal and had pre conceived notions that it was going to be painful. That was far from the case. Never felt a thing. Many thanks Dr Varella and staff on a job well done. Would not hesitate to reffer anyone needing this type of treatment. See yall soon on my follow up vist. Wyman Smith

I doubt that anyone looks forward to an appointment with the endodontist, however, when it becomes necessary Dr. Varella and his staff will do everything possible to make it a comfortable experience. Dr. Varella is a very skilled and caring endodontist and his staff (Heather, Amber & Johnna) provide wonderful support.

Nobody wants a root canal, but if you have to get one, this was hands down the best experience (I almost fell asleep!). The doctor explains everything, the nurse was amazing, and the front office staff was super helpful and friendly. I hope I never need to come back, but if I do, this is the only place I'll ever go!

If you dread going for a dental procedure, calm yourself, this is more like going to see your longtime friends!! From the moment you walk in you're greeted with a smile and everyone makes sure that you're comfortable and informed about the entire process. The care you'll receive here is top tier!

I woke up yesterday with a throbbing toothache and was referred to Dr. Varella by my dentist. I was able to get an appointment the same day, which was such a relief. From the moment I arrived, Dr. Varella was incredibly reassuring, informative, and gentle. He explained every step of the root canal as he worked, which helped ease all my anxiety. His assistant was just as kind, courteous, and gentle. This morning—just one day after the procedure—my tooth feels completely fine. I’m so grateful for the excellent care I received. I was very, very pleased with the entire experience and highly recommend Dr. Varella to anyone who needs an endodontist.

Dr.Varella was great!! He communicated everything clearly from the approach he was going to take when we went over the scan and throughout each stage of the procedure.

- Jermaine Brinson

Dr. Varella is truly outstanding. I went in for a root canal expecting the worst and had absolutely zero pain. I’m now 5 days out and haven’t felt a thing since. I even went straight back to work afterward. The whole experience was smooth, stress-free, and honestly impressive. Dr. Varella’s skill, calm approach, and attention to detail really set him apart. If you’re nervous about a root canal, this is 100% the doctor you want.

My experience with Dr. Varella and his staff was amazing! Words cannot express how great they all are. I truly appreciate Dr. Varella taking his time to explain to me everything that was going to happen. As strange as this may sound, but I was sooo relaxed that I ended up taking a nap during the procedure...lol. Everyone was kind, patient, and had a positive attitude. 10/10 I would definitely recommend! Also, a huge shoutout to Amber, she is wonderful!!

Dr. Varella is amazing. He ran into an issue with the rework on my root canal. I had an artifact of some kind blocking the root, at the end of my first visit we were planning oral surgery to fix it and my second appointment was just supposed to be placing a permanent filing. However, when I got there he said I've been thinking about this all week and I have one more thing I would like to try if you're okay with it. Well the one more thing solved the problem, no oral surgery needed. He was super friendly and answered all my questions with care. I was so relaxed during the procedure and highly entertained by the antics of the staff. You can tell they all care and have a good time working together. Everyone in the office is amazing from the front desk to the back. I'm a bit sad that I won't be needing their services anytime soon, I will miss them. If you need Endodontic services you'd be doing yourself a favor going here.

Amazing experience from start to finish. My husband was referred to Dr. Varella from our amazing dentist Dr. Greenwalt and it was everything you would hope to have with a dental encounter. We felt at ease, assured and comfortable given the scope of dental work being done. My husband said he appreciated the human approach taken to make him feel comfortable in the chair and throughout his time spent in Dr. Varella’s care. The on staff administration was also kind and accommodating while I waited in the waiting room. I would definitely recommend Dr. Varella to anyone wanting an empathetic dental experience.

My daughter needed another root canal and was terrified of having it done again. Dr. Varella and his staff were amazing with her. Watching how great they were with her especially seeing how emotional she got, he literally took his time and saved her tooth! Thank you! He gets 100 stars!!

I recently had rhinoplasty, so when one of my teeth suddenly started hurting, I tried to tolerate the pain for as long as I could - I was terrified of triggering any inflammation that might affect my healing. But when the pain became unbearable, I finally had to put myself in the hands of a professional. I specifically wanted an experienced endodontist, someone who would be extremely careful, because even one wrong move could have compromised my recovery. Dr. Varella was exactly that person. He was incredibly gentle and explained every step of the procedure in a way that immediately put me at ease. Even though this was my very first root canal, I stopped being afraid before we even began. He started with a full examination, X-rays, and 3D imaging to assess the health of all my teeth - I was not sure which one was hurting. His attention to detail, calm manner, and clear communication instantly gave me confidence that I was in the right place. Not only is he an excellent specialist, but he’s also a genuinely kind and reassuring human being. The office is comfortable, welcoming, and, surprisingly, not scary at all, even for someone like me who gets nervous about these things )) The staff is incredibly welcoming and very friendly, which makes the entire experience even better. I’m truly grateful for his professionalism and care. Highly recommend!

Can't say enough good things! My child had a cavity that her dentist thought might need a root canal. Amber was amazing at getting everything taken care of so we could be seen as we weren't sure she could be seen because of her age. Doctor varella was amazing. Explained everything so my daughter could understand. Decided to move forward with the procedure and advised if he could just do a filling he would so she wouldn't have to go through with the root canal. He was concerned about her nerve. Procedure day was amazing. My daughter isn't a fan of the dentist but he was so good she fell asleep. If you need a root canal I would highly suggest dr. Varella. Especially if your child needs one. I really hope I dont need to be back, but if we do I won't be worried about my daughter.
